Couldn't they just come out and put up ten runs in the first inning? Y'know, get it the hell over with quick so we can like, relax? Sweet lord almighty.

The collision between Johnny Damon and Damion Jackson was freakin' ugly. I couldn't believe they kept playing it over and over again. It...looked...painful.

Yeah, Manny hotdogged his homerun a bit, but please, announcers, get over it already. The guy's been sucking, and in his childish enthusiasm he went a little overboard. (C'mon Psycho Lyons, like you never did anything dippy.)

Jason Varitek has gigantor catcher thighs.

Derek Lowe needed that victory. That should give him confidence for anything. I couldn't believe he came back with that same pitch for the third out he got the second one with. It had to be perfect and it damn well was.

This year feels right...but I'll believe it when I see it.

BTW, my dad swears he saw Theo Epstein in Temple this morning here in Boston.
